[交流] Post Doctoral Position in Biocatalysis / Synthetic Biology : Singapore

We are seeking candidates to work as Post-Doctoral researchers investigating biological methods to synthesize or modify polysaccharides which will be used antimicrobial drugs.

The candidate will work in an integrated team of Microbiologists and Chemists to design and synthesize new antimicrobial polymers by biocatalytic methods or synthetic biology that will inhibit Gram negative and Gram positive pathogens as well as Mycobacteria and fungal pathogens. The goal is to design and synthesize active compounds, that are non-toxic to mammalian cells, and that represent lead compounds for drug development.
Environment
The work will be conducted within the Centre for Antimicrobial Bioengineering (CAMB). CAMB has core expertise in polymer synthesize and structure-property activity studies. The polymer synthesis involves various synthetic chemical methods as well as biological methods using biocatalysis.

Responsibilities
The candidate will work with PhD students as well as research staff to achieve the project goals
Will develop and execute experiments aimed at the synthesis and modification of antimicrobial polysaccharides.
Prepare technical reports for the program PIs and present data at regular group meetings
Draft research publications
Assist with organization and management of the research team

Requirements
PhD in Biocatalysis, Biochemical Engineering, Synthetic Biology or Molecular Biology.
Expertise in growing and handling a range of microbial pathogens
Capacity to develop and interpret inhibition assays
Expertise in developing and interpreting experiments for determination of mechanism of action of novel antimicrobials
Strong track record of publication in related disciplines
Ability to work in a multidisciplinary team
Good interpersonal and communication skills, oral and written, as well as organizational
